I don’t recall seeing the balcony guards installed before the windows before.

speechless

This is the most basic looking tower I've ever seen.

Every time I look at it, I puke in my mouth and that's saying something seeing as I'm known for liking some of the most opposed projects in the city.

The window wall was always gonna doom this thing to mediocrity at best, but frosted glass balconies really would have been a major improvement over this disaster of a building. Why bother creating an interesting pattern of balconies if you aren't going to do the materials that show it off?

How realistic is it for occupancy in July 2023 - considering they are still working on roof at end of January?

Those first few shots are some of the least offensive angles for this building.

Definitely looks its best when looking up at it from close by.

I actually think it's the last shot that doesn't make it look so bad.

Certainly it lives up to its lipstick on a beige spandrel pig persona.

...and the beige somehow makes it worse than if it where grey here. /sigh

honestly I think this building looks pretty good... (on the Toronto bell curve)... The zig-zag balconies add some visual interest, that colour of spandrel is relatively inoffensive, and I really like the brick and materials on the podium...

You work for Pemberton, don't you.... ;p
Easily the ugliest building going up. Unless you're directly under it, then I guess it's fine.

Maybe we can petition the new condo board to frost the balconies. It would honestly increase their property values.
